Story
Queenie is a beautiful Blue Heeler mix who's had a rough start, but she's ready to begin a brighter chapter with a family who will love her for the gentle, loyal soul she is. She can be a bit nervous when meeting new people, but with patience and understanding, she blossoms into the sweetest companion who just wants to be by your side. Queenie would thrive in a calm, consistent home-preferably with older children who can give her the time and space she needs to feel safe and confident. Queenie has done well with dogs in the shelter setting and may like a home with another playful companion. With love and trust, Queenie is sure to show just how special she truly is. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 55.9 Age: 1yrs 1mths 2wks

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.German Shepherd dogs, as well as the other herding breeds that we have in rescue, are highly active, energetic, working breeds. They require considerable vetting, exercise, socialization, training, leadership and mental stimuli in order to be well-adjusted, well-balanced, and well-mannered dogs. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings in order to work on his/her leash skills, manners, and social skills. These breeds make great additions to active families who will pamper them, but who will also work with them, as they are smart dogs who need leadership, structure, plenty of activity and mental stimulation. If you are new to German Shepherds (and other herding breeds), please research the breed to make sure this is the dog for you. We ask that you consider the time and financial commitment that your German Shepherd (or other herding breed) dog will require before applying for one. Please review the section on our website (www.heartlandgsrescue.org) 'Is a HUGS Dog Right for You?' for additional information.Lobo is a very friendly and playful Australian Cattle Dog puppy. He's around 3.5 months old and is doing great with house-training. He's good with people and other dogs. He is a gorgeous puppy and a sweet boy! Lobo's adoption fee is $450 all of which goes back into offseting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs.  We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age- appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped. Please visit http://heartlandgsrescue.rescuegroups.org/info/adoption for more information about our adoption process and requirements, and to apply. Like all Australian Cattle Dogs, GSDs, and other herding breeds that we have in rescue, Lobo will need training, consistency, boundaries, and lots of activity and socialization, in order to be a well-balanced, well-behaved dog. This sweet boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that he needs. Because of that, Lobo's ideal owner will have prior Australian Cattle Dog, GSD, or other similar breed experience. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills and manners.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Please review the information in the 'About Us', 'Important Considerations' and 'Adopt' sections on our website menu, as it contains useful information about the breed, adoption fees, the adoption process and our requirements, and how meeting the dogs works.December 12, 2025, 1:31 am

Story
Hi I'm Maximus (Max) and I LOVE life! I am a happy guy and everyone is my friend whether they talk, bark or meow. Ok, the meows kind of scare me so I may avoid them. I'm an Australian Cattle Dog puppy and am about 9-10 months old and 37 pounds, and I am open to lots of guidance and love learning because I'm super smart! I'd love to share life's adventures and lots of snuggles with you and when I'm old enough can even be a running buddy! If you have a fenced in yard then woohoo I love outside play time!   My favorite things are to play with other dogs, play with toys, chew on bones, belly rubs, cuddles and to sleep in the arms of my foster mama! I live with dogs from 35 pounds to 160 pounds, love kids, and as for cats but they scare the dickens out of me...and, although, I'm not sure what the dickens is, you can be I try to ignore them! I'd be super duper happy if you have another dogs to help wear me out as I'm a medium to high energy boy and then settle in with my people! Also, I'm such a good boy when lights go out so do I and sleep through the night!  I'm potty trained and pretty much crate training.  I'll go in fine but don't really love it so may cry for a few minutes. My foster mom ignores me, so I do eventually quiet down but NO APARTMENTS please ! Also, since I am a puppy I still get so excited I still jump but am working hard on that and try really hard to please!   My hobby is training/learning and I love working for treats.  I'm really good at "sit" and "down",  and am trying hard to "stay" even though my hiney keeps wiggling with joy. I promise to keep your home full of joy, love and goofiness so please pick me, pick me, pick me (visualize...my paw is currently up in the air)!!!  Apply at www.HavenAnimalRescueNebraska.org ADOPTION DONATION: $400 *ALL DOGS MUST BE INSIDE COMPANION ANIMALS!
